We all have some bad days, maybe he just thought it in an offhand way when ms. God was nagging him. "Oh Me, I wish I was dead". *shazam!*
Is that why it has been so quiet on the smiting front?

Blim: thank you for so carefully considering my question :) If God made us in his image (and us here is men, because he made chicks later I'm told, taking a part of man to do it) then God would definitely have a ms. God. Unless you're saying he's a loser who can't get or create a ms. God?

Oh, and you know of course that omniscience + omnipotence creates all kinds of ugly logical paradoxes where one cancels out the other.

MR. S: way to miss the point completely. OK, substitute a different gender on indeed no gender at all. That was not the point, see?

First of all -- you have to capitalize the "He"s in your question -- you are referring to a deity.
Second of all - is there a Ms. God? I think not. God isn't dependant on someone to keep His house.
Third of all - would God consider suicide? That's the meat of your question. Since God is also Omnipotent (as well as Omniscient) what would be the point of depression? Consider that God can change anything -- Universally! -- so whatever disappointed Him could be erased in time and space.
That event would have simply never happened.
Unless, of course you are a Calvanist......
The questions you really want to ask is this: What was the Universe befor God created it? This will give you the answer you seek.
But - I don't have that answer.

you ought to the two be conscious the best judgment of your argument to an all-powerful author of humanity. How would this form of sentient being recognize that its existence isn't created by using an outstanding greater suitable being? The sequence of such hierarchical super beings would in line with possibility be countless, and if so, would not this render the theory of omnipotence not likely? as quickly as we choose the flow into the belief of infinities, our powers of reasoning are suspect; would this not be conscious to any point of intelligence even godlike aliens? sensible layout would desire to presuppose there's a single all-understanding author interior the 1st place, a monotheist God in case you like. yet would this form of God recognize how he began? If this God has constantly existed then why would he entertain a finite universe with finite imperfect souls for companionship? particularly an all understanding God would be previous trivia like becoming good and evil, loving imperfect beings of his very own introduction, retaining grudges and handing over vengeance. Hypotheses with regard to the anthropic universe, and progressed technological alien civilisations production those abound, and to a pair quantity they converge on the classic thought of a ultimate author. i think they'll stay perpetually hypotheses, despite if arithmetic shows the prospect. a limiteless array of parallel universes is purely too lots for a finite techniques of any degree of classification to soak up.

Well God is also immortal, so he could not die. But then if He is omnipotent he could die. Catch 22 is the word it think.

God would not wish death to Himself; nor are WE to wish death on others, no matter how we disagree. It's against everything God is....because He is the Master of Creation... not the death of it.

...no.
Omnipotence does not overcome the promises he has made.
God keeps his promises. You may not like it, but he does.
"I will curse those that curse you"... a promise made to Abraham and his descendants.
And you wonder why God destroyed whole nations in the NT.
It's not 'evil'. It's only evil by human standards. God is keeping a promise.

Thats a good one but not as good as this.
Can God be able to make a taco so big, not even he can lift it?

That could explain a lot. Being omnipotent must not be all it's cracked up to be.

What faith compels you to assume a non-fact? (Namely that God ought to be male)?
